I got the Phil Spector Wall of Sound retrospective and am downloading it onto the computer as we speak.
Anyone want anything?
Here's the list of songs:
Where'd they get CAT scan from?... I mean, did they test it on cats? Or does the machine sort of look like a cat?
Dawn ,'Sleeper'
Buffista Music 4: Needs More Cowbell!
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I would love River deep mountain high, or any of them, really.

“Not dead yet!”
Done, Perkins.
Also, The Crystals "He's a Rebel" and "Then He Kissed Me" and The Ronettes "Be My Baby."

I really want "Black Pearl" by Sonny Charles and the Checkmates. Co-write by Toni Wine, and my coolest backstage experience ever was having Robert Pollard sing it to me while we talked bubblegum after a Guided By Voices show.
eta: Oh bother, it's not on the list.

Sadly, not on this collection.
ETA: Got momentarily excited when I did a search through my music and came up with it. Then I realized it was the theme from Pirates.
D'uh!

Yeah, I don't really have a lot of meet-your-heroes stories, but that experience was great.

I'm still playing around with trying to get an evokes California/lounge/beach/sixties soundtrack going.
So far I've got:
Caravan- 80 Drums Around the World
Surfer Girl- The Beach Boys
Telstar- The Tornadoes
Misirlou- Martin Denny
I Only Want to Be With You- Shelby Lynne (has a wicked nice lounge feel)
God Only Knows- The Beach Boys
If I Fell- Evan Rachel Wood (From Across the Universe
Suggestions?

the hardest to learn / was the least complicated
I Only Want to Be With You- Shelby Lynne (has a wicked nice lounge feel)
I'm curious about this version, because I *love* this song and firmly believe that nothing beats Dusty.
